4 quit New York Press in cartoon flap


NEW YORK, Feb. 8 (UPI) -- Three editors and a reporter quit The New York
Press for quashing an editorial and reprints of cartoons that angered
Muslims around the world, a report said. 

Before the publisher pulled Wednesday's front page of the free newspaper, it
carried the headline, "Where's Mohammed -- the Danish Cartoon Madness." An
editorial criticized other newspapers for lacking the courage to reprint
Danish cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed, WCBS-TV, New York, reported. 

Also included were drawings portraying the prophet as a terrorist. 

"A lot of papers haven't run these cartoons because they've felt
threatened," resigning Editor in Chief Harry Siegel told the TV station. "If
that happens, then this violence has been worthwhile and it's accomplished
its goal." 

"The fact that the press is self-censored over this is disgusting," said
resigning Managing Editor Tim Marchman. 

"It's not something we can write about and call people hypocrites if we're
going to be doing the same thing," said ex-reporter Azi Paybarah.

"Fair Use" criteria established in Section 107 of the Copyright Act of 1976.
The principle of "Fair Use" was established as law by Section 107 of The
Copyright Act of 1976. "Fair Use" legally eliminates the need to obtain
permission or pay royalties for the use of previously copyrighted materials
if the purposes of display include "criticism, comment, news reporting,
teaching, scholarship, and research." Section 107 establishes four criteria
for determining whether the use of a work in any particular case qualifies
as a "fair use". A work used does not necessarily have to satisfy all four
criteria to qualify as an instance of "fair use". Rather, "fair use" is
determined by the overall extent to which the cited work does or does not
substantially satisfy the criteria in their totality. If you wish to use
copyrighted material for purposes of your own that go beyond 'fair use,' you
